Udawalawe National Park lies on the boundary of Sabaragamuwa and Uva Provinces, in Sri Lanka. The
national park was created to provide a sanctuary for wild animals displaced by the construction of the Udawalawe
reservoir on the Walawe River, as well as to protect the catchment of the reservoir. The reserve covers 30,821 hectares of
land area and was established on 30 June 1972. The park is 165 kilometres from Colombo. Udawalawe is an
important habitat for water birds and Sri Lankan Elephants. It is a popular tourist destination and the third most visited park in
the country.

DAY 02 – UDAWALAWE -YALA – BENTOTA

After breakfast visit Udawalawe Elephant Transit Home.

The main objective of this facility is rehabilitation of orphaned baby elephants to ultimately release them
back into their natural habitat. Up to three elephants per week are killed in Sri Lanka due to conflicts with humans,
often leaving behind orphan calves. The elephants are kept at part of the Udawalawe National Park to maintain
familiarity with their habitat, but have access to both food and medical care.All care at the facility is by trained staff,
and efforts are made to minimize contact between elephants and humans to keep the elephants from becoming
acclimated to humans. Although visitors can watch the elephants being fed, they are not allowed to touch or otherwise
interact with them. Leave for Yala.
 
Afternoon safari to Yala National Park by jeeps.

Yala National Park – is an important national park in the Southern Province of Sri Lanka. This popular
reserve has more than 400 wild Asian Elephants, which are relatively easy to see in this open habitat. Yala also has a
dozen or so Leopards, although seeing this largely nocturnal carnivore requires considerable luck. There are good
numbers of Crocodiles, Golden Jackals, Water Buffalo and Grey Iangurs amongst other large animals. The open
parkland attracts birds pf prey such as White-bellied Sea Eagle Crested Serpent Eagle, Fish Eagle Booted eagle,
Changeable Hawk Eagle and the wetlands have waders and Painted Storks. Land birds are in abundance, and include Indian Roller,
Indian Peafowl, Malabar Pied Hornbill.

Thereafter leave for the Airport or the Bentota Beach Resort.
